I've spent a lot of time trying to find a browser keyboard navigator that doesn't constantly fight with the website I'm actually on. Most extensions I've used end up hijacking native shortcuts on sites like Gmail or YT, which is pretty annoying.

So I built a Keyboard Navigator extension.

- Trigger: You just tap Left Shift to see the hints. It’s a quick toggle, so it doesn't interfere with your normal typing or site-specific hotkeys. - New Tab: Tapping Right Shift opens the link in a background tab. - Performance: I used an object pooling engine to keep it lag-free on huge pages. It also works with Shadow DOM and ARIA roles (where a lot of simpler navigators tend to break). - Minimalist: No background processes, no configuration, and no extra features that add bloat.

This is mainly a personal productivity project for myself, so no ads, free, and will be open source forever — I just wanted to share it as it has been working great for me.
